RESOLUTION CONCERNING THE HOUSE RULES.

This House Resolution (HR 2) establishes procedural rules for the House of Representatives during the 2025-2026 legislative sessions. It details the speaker's duties (including maintaining order, presiding, and handling absences), outlines the appointment process for deputy speakers and chaplains, and specifies how bills are calendared and referred. The resolution directly affects all House members, staff, and committee operations by setting standard procedures for conducting business. It does not change substantive policy but governs the House's internal workflow and meeting protocols.
